happen_v in_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o part_n and_o some_o have_v believe_v that_o this_o air_n be_v nothing_o but_o that_o motion_n but_o it_o be_v certain_a there_o be_v a_o sixth_o and_o natural_a air_n wherein_o the_o part_n move_v not_o and_o which_o be_v no_o effect_n of_o the_o soul_n emotion_n so_o that_o it_o will_v be_v more_o likely_a that_o this_o air_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o certain_a relation_n of_o the_o part_n among_o themselves_o which_o happen_v from_o the_o situation_n they_o take_v when_o they_o move_v or_o when_o they_o rest_v but_o nether_a be_v this_o sufficient_a since_o the_o colour_n which_o that_o relation_n comprise_v not_o partly_o give_v the_o air_n to_o the_o face_n and_o that_o ruddiness_n be_v one_o of_o the_o principal_a character_n of_o shame_n as_o paleness_n be_v of_o fear_n this_o ever_o increase_v the_o difficulty_n since_o that_o in_o define_v beauty_n we_o say_v that_o its_o a_o just_a proportion_n of_o the_o part_n accompany_v with_o a_o please_a colour_n and_o with_o a_o grace_n and_o that_o colour_n and_o grace_n be_v esteem_v as_o two_o different_a thing_n for_o grace_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o please_a air_n nay_o even_o custom_n often_o apply_v it_o to_o what_o it_o be_v not_o when_o we_o say_v a_o man_n have_v a_o ill_a grace_n and_o in_o this_o case_n grace_n be_v the_o same_o with_o air_n that_o we_o may_v know_v then_o what_o this_o marvellous_a air_n be_v where_o the_o serenity_n and_o the_o storm_n of_o the_o mind_n appear_v we_o be_v first_o to_o observe_v that_o the_o air_n of_o person_n be_v discover_v in_o their_o picture_n that_o the_o grace_n of_o a_o fair_a face_n be_v express_v by_o colour_n and_o that_o consequent_o there_o must_v be_v somewhat_o of_o fix_v and_o which_o fly_v not_o away_o since_o there_o be_v none_o but_o stable_n and_o permanent_a thing_n which_o paint_v have_v power_n over_o and_o that_o of_o all_o visible_a object_n there_o be_v only_a motion_n which_o subject_n not_o itself_o to_o the_o pencil_n now_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o find_v any_o thing_n stable_n common_a to_o live_a thing_n and_o their_o picture_n beside_o the_o figure_n and_o colour_n of_o the_o part_n so_o that_o it_o seem_v this_o air_n be_v to_o be_v there_o place_v but_o because_o there_o be_v yet_o another_o thing_n in_o the_o grace_n which_o the_o art_n of_o paint_v can_v attain_v to_o and_o that_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a vivacity_n which_o can_v never_o be_v fix_v on_o the_o cloth_n we_o must_v with_o reason_n believe_v that_o motion_n serve_v also_o to_o this_o grace_n it_o be_v that_o which_o render_v the_o beauty_n lively_a and_o pierce_a without_o which_o its_o sad_a dead_a and_o without_o attraction_n we_o can_v in_o effect_n doubt_v but_o that_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o part_n give_v something_o to_o this_o vivacity_n since_o it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o its_o perfection_n but_o because_o that_o after_o it_o have_v cease_v there_o be_v yet_o i_o

without_o doubt_n after_o have_v well_o inquire_v what_o it_o may_v be_v we_o shall_v find_v it_o to_o be_v the_o spirit_n which_o the_o soul_n continual_o send_v into_o those_o part_n which_o leave_v there_o the_o brightness_n of_o the_o natural_a light_n they_o have_v and_o indeed_o there_o be_v face_n which_o near_o seem_v well_o and_o afar_o off_o appear_v very_o ill_o colour_v because_o the_o spirit_n animate_v it_o not_o and_o that_o the_o splendour_n they_o give_v be_v so_o weak_a that_o the_o species_n of_o it_o can_v reach_v far_o and_o so_o they_o leave_v those_o of_o the_o colour_n more_o wither_v this_o grace_n than_o be_v in_o the_o colour_n in_o the_o figure_n in_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o part_n and_o of_o the_o spirit_n and_o yet_o this_o do_v not_o say_v that_o all_o
